Umbraco Menu

This handles menu implementation in Umbraco's backoffice, either creating custom menus from scratch or extending existing ones like the Help menu. It fetches the latest official docs before generating code, which matters since Umbraco's extension system has specific patterns for manifests and TypeScript imports. You get working examples for both umbraco-package.json and manifest.ts approaches, plus the common built-in menu aliases you'll actually need. The workflow is straightforward: it asks what you're building, pulls fresh docs, then generates the manifest files. Useful if you're extending Umbraco and don't want to dig through the extension registry documentation yourself every time.

Umbraco Menu

What is it?

Menus are extension components that display throughout the Umbraco backoffice interface, including in sidebars and button flyouts. They serve as containers for one or more menu item extensions, enabling organized navigation and action grouping. Menu items are configured separately and can be added to existing menus or custom menus.
